    the saddest moment of my overwatch competitive career was finally getting into diamond and then the first game i get after that somebody got ddos’d and i proceeded to lose every game after that and dropped back into plat 🙏

    Reminder: overwatch didn’t cause the problem to occur. One of the blizzard employees did. Just because blizzard made overwatch doesn’t mean you have to hate on overwatch. It’s fine if you don’t like the game anymore. But remember that overwatch didn’t cause it.

    @PlayApex enough with the characters who can see through walls already. It's like a crude attempt to fix the bad audio, don't need to hear people if you can just see them. Please try be more creative, or just steal off overwatch again...

    @ReaperYour @hanifrbbn @PlayStation True, true. My little brother got hacked awhile back and customer service wouldnt do **** to help us. Thankfully he was young enough he only had a few games, but it sucks he lost all his progress in games like Overwatch.

    games was trolled, I just think that if people like this joke about descrimination and homophobia, which is a real issue, especially in Overwatch and gaming communities, then how can they expect others to take it seriously?

    It's so funny that Apex is doing everything Overwatch wanted to do and more in terms of characterization and narrative. And I'm positive it's not a matter of skill or effort on the part of the creatives, it's a scoping and management issue. We'll see if that changes with OW2

    @jMar23xD @Aspharon @NESbot_feed you do realize overwatch 2 is a big content update, not something that should take 3 years right you also realize that there's trouble behind the scenes as the director left the project? you also realize that they could do the bare minimum by adding like one new hero a year?

    @CharsEmotes Im a small streamer that loves playing valorant and overwatch with my friends i usually try to keep my streams fun by adding things that the stream can do to keep engaged and included but the problem would be that no one really subs to me so i dont want the emotes to go to waste

    @Anpumon If you're talking about Overwatch people made a way bigger issue about that than they ever should have. The seasonal items come back every year, everything can be bought with in-game credits earned at an okay rate I guess, and nothing is a straight advantage really.

    i just hope apex doesn't run into the same problem as overwatch where they start overloading new heroes w random stuff that they end up having trouble balancing

    @realAyitSevi Looks like they are gonna turn it into Destiny. A “Live service” game. Similar to games like Fortnite, Overwatch and PUBG. Live events and lots of micro transactions.

    I am almost convinced that people feeling bad after playing Overwatch is almost purely caused by toxic players. IMO there's not really much other reason to be so upset after playing a video game that isn't caused by your own issues 😕

    What 8 don't understand is- What is Biden waiting for in Afghanistan?! Push the Taliban & ISIS back with B-52 Carpetbombing!!! When the enemy comes into bayonet range, its a BROKEN ARROW! Why not stop the invasion of cities with B52 overwatch?! Circle the towns with bomb runs!

    Blizzard not fixing their **** makes me so ******* mad, because you refuse to fix your company you ruin the lives of casters, players producers and everyone else that works on Overwatch Leauge when 90% of league sponsors pull their sponsorships, (1/2)

    I’m sorry but I really can’t understand the mindset of the people cheering on the fact that Overwatch League is losing all its sponsors which could leave it in serious financial trouble.

    It shows just how poorly Overwatch's esports scene has been managed if you get to the point where fans are actively waiting to hear if OWL will even happen next season.. Regardless of sponsorship issues, people have had this mindset for years already.

    @Hexinblazin Warzone has always ran like garbage for me, and I've tried it on 3 different gaming laptops. And Overwatch has had similar issues. For a while it wan fine on my new hardware. But in the end it always starts performing like crap for no reason. On one laptop it was unplayable. I-

    It's EXTREMELY rare to see a server close due to an error in Overwatch these days (save from custom games) but I experienced one and I'm absolutely dumbfounded. I managed to get it recorded as well.

    @Cloud_Atla5 @TheCalWeathers @IGN Anthem, Overwatch, No man's Sky (at launch), GTA Online (as well at launch) and even Red Dead Online (at launch). Most resently Cyberpunk (it wasn't supposed to be a game as a service).

    @parukosleepy Crash isn't even from Blizzard, it's from only Activision. The character that should be there would be Tracer or any Overwatch character idk.
